Are they not available through the hotel atm or do you have to book through the Orange County supporters club? Never been before but quite fancy this. There will be a special price for the rooms through NARSA,, weekday rooms Monday through Thursday are usually cheap but boy does the price jump Friday and Saturday nights. And yes please avoid Circus Circus and I would suggest Caesar`s Palace as well, they have the scums North American convention there quite often Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance it will be Caesars though. it does raise an interesting point though as I'm sure theirs is around the same time as ours. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlippinEck 3,844 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I really want to go to one of these. Was great seeing so many RSC'S over in Sacramento last year. I wanna go back to the states as it is so would have plenty of time to save up! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RM Monitor And Standards Officer 112,879 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 @TheLawMan Is this a good deal mate? Thomas cook let you book a year in advance and I'm not sure on prices etc or what would be reasonable Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas cook let you book a year in advance and I'm not sure on prices etc or what would be reasonable Flamingo should be no more than £50 per night in my opinion so assuming thats £350 then you would be paying £915 for a flight which is extortionate. For example, if i look at 1st June to 8th June this year, BA are £470 return from Dublin. Throw in a cheap Ryanair £50 return and you could get to Vegas for £520 return. It does mean a few extra stops obviously but that £400 saving could be your drink money plus more out there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLawMan 6,240 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I would recommend to everyone to leave it until August this year where Alliance Oneworlds 2017 sales start and if there are 2 of you going then i reckon you should be looking at £750/£800 per person for sharing a twin room in Flamingo, Plant Hollywood, Monte Carlo, New York New York, MGM etc. The only down side is that your flights would likely be: Glasgow > Dublin > London > Vegas on way out BUT Vegas > London > Glasgow on way back.

GOAT 30,449 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Does the hotel do deals for us? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOAT 30,449 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 If me and her went for a week in Vegas that time, how much do you reckon it would cost us for flights, hotel and spending money all in roughly? I'm actually choking to go to this now. I'd actually go myself if we couldn't get a babysitter, although I reckon I could talk someone into going.

If you manage your money well, Vegas isnt as expensive as people make out. You can do Vegas on a budget by having a right few drinks in the room etc before you go out, or clever play of machines. At best though, you will be £1500 for flights and hotel if you get a good Glasgow deal or fly from Dublin as posted. Spending money is a bit of a toin coss. You could get by tightly on £500-£700 i reckon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
